Possible Causes
High ambient humidity, Door gasket not sealing, Frequent door openings, Door glass insulation failure
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Wipe up condensation promptly to avoid slipping hazards. Unplug the unit before gasket adjustments.
Steps to reduce condensation:
- Check ambient conditions: If the cooler is in a very humid room (e.g., near a dishwasher or in a damp basement), consider moving it to a drier location or using a room dehumidifier.
- Inspect door gasket: Ensure the gasket seals fully around the door. Replace the NewAir door gasket if it is damaged or warped.
- Limit door openings: Minimize how often and how long the door is opened, especially in humid environments.
- Check door glass: If condensation forms between the glass panes, the door’s insulating seal may have failed. In that case, replace the NewAir complete door assembly.
Note: Some light condensation on the glass in humid weather is normal, but heavy or persistent moisture indicates a sealing or environmental issue.
